Basketball Shooting Drills - Pressure One and One

Description:

Depending on the number of baskets available, place a ball at each basket and divide the team as evenly as possible at each basket. Players shoot one and one foul shots at each basket with a time limit.

Instructions:

On the coaches signal, first player shoots the front end of the one and one. If you miss you must quickly rebound the miss, pass to the next shooter and go to the end of the line at the basket you started on. If you make the front end, shoot again. If you make it go to the next basket.

If you miss, quickly rebound your miss and go to the end of the line of the basket you started on. You can only rotate baskets when you make both ends of the one and one. I found that really good shooters can hit all baskets (6) in 5 minutes. The amount of time you give will depend on the number of baskets available.

Number of Players:

Team Drill

Tips:

Ensure the shooter doesn't take longer than 10 seconds on the line quickly rebounds all misses and passes directly to the next shooter. Shooters cannot cross the foul line until the ball hits the rim. Players waiting to shoot must stand outside of the free throw circle in order to give the shooter room.

Variations:

Decrease the amount of time as the season progress.

Arrange the team in groups, and the group cannot rotate to the next basket until the entire group makes both ends of a one and one.

Put poor shooters with good shooters for added pressure and foul shooting help.

Rotate clockwise today and couner the next.
